Naïve Folk Art Galloping Horse Large Painting By Matt Rix In Vintage Rope Frame

This distinctive folk art painting by British artist Matt Rix is created on canvas using reclaimed household paints, giving the work both character and a sense of sustainability. It depicts a grey horse in full gallop across bare, earthen ground, set against a soft light grey sky with gentle green hills rolling in the distance. The horse’s cropped black mane and tail reference 19th-century styling, while its dark muzzle and hooves contrast sharply with its pale coat, enhancing its bold, graphic presence.

The reverse is lined with a collage of antique papers, adding hidden texture and narrative depth. Uniquely framed in reclaimed hessian rope, the piece has a rustic, handcrafted charm.

Measuring 64 × 53 cm overall, it is a striking celebration of movement and tradition. FREE worldwide shipping included.
